Coronation Street star Georgia Taylor has reportedly split from her boyfriend Charlie De Melo.
The actress, 44, met Charlie, 35, on the set of the ITV soap in 2020 and they started dating in late 2022, but the pair are no longer together, according to The Sun.
The publication claimed they both decided to part ways several months ago but remain good friends.
A source told the publication: 'Georgia and Charlie are no longer a couple, but they remain friends who care about each other deeply.'
'They have lots of happy memories together, but are both really focused on work at the moment and looking forward to the future, there are no hard feelings.'
According to The Mirror, the couple spent Christmas separately and Georgia reportedly celebrated with friends and co-stars.

Georgia and Charlie have been contacted by MailOnline for comment.
Charlie confirmed his romance with Georgia in July 2023, sharing a series of snaps from a Blur concert they attended at London's Wembley Arena.
The real-life couple played a married couple on the ITV soap before Charlie's character Imran Habeeb was killed off in 2022.
Georgia was previously in a 14-year relationship with actor Mark Letheren, 53, before they went their separate ways in 2022.
The former couple met back in 2008 on Casualty and Charlie previously dated his former co-star Nicola Thorp.
Fans of the ITV soap may not know that Georgia opted for a pseudonym early on in her career, changing her legal name, Claire Jackson, when she made her soap debut.
She told The Mirror: 'It's not that I planned this to happen. But when I started with Coronation Street I had to register with Equity, the actors' union, and at the time there seemed to be a hell of a lot of Claires so I had to think of something else.'
She admitted: 'I couldn’t tell you where I got Georgia from, other than I liked it, but my grandad’s surname was Taylor and he passed away not long before I got the part.'

'As a teenager, I didn’t really think the consequences through of opting for a completely different name, but it's meant there’s been quite a bit of confusion over the years. At this point, I’ll pretty much answer to anything!'
In 2001, Georgia won the Best Dramatic Performance British Soap Award for her role as Toyah Battersby.
She left Coronation Street for the first time in 2003 and joined BBC One's Casualty as a series regular, playing Ruth Winters from September 2007.
Since returning to the cobbles, Georgia's character embarked on an on-screen romance with solicitor Imran Habeeb, once rivalling for his affection with her sister Leanne Battersby (Jane Danson).
After four years, Georgia transitioned to television again, starring as Junior Crown Prosecutor Kate Barker in Law & Order: UK for two seasons, from 2013 to 2014. She then returned to Coronation Street permanently in 2016.
